I am not the one gunning for murder. You are the one who forgives/appologizes for terrorists, and claims they are freedom fighters.

I see no evidence that those missiles are going out. NONE. The link I saw merely said they were shells. I find it hard to believe that Israeli shells are left out in the open for people to sign like that.

Okay, I may be wrong. They could be outgoing shells - I looked it up and it didn't say either way whether it was an incoming or outgoing shell. I still see no proof that the children wrote that everyone must die. I looked this up on the AP and even Al Jazeera.

There is zippo proof that either a) the shells are outgoing shells; and b) that messages of hate were written on them.

There were many dead shells collected around Northern Israel. I fail to see any proof that those are not dead shells.

Even if they are live shells, so what?

It's no worse than the way Palestinians "car swarm" around dead bodies - tearing apart the body limb from limb, and taking pictures of it all.

War is hell. It brings out the worst in people. I don't defend signing missiles (assuming they are live missiles), but I fail to see how it's any worse than what typically goes on on your average day in the Palestinian territories. This doesn't involve taking apart bodies limb from limb. And the war in Lebanon is being fought to protect Israel's right to exist.

War is hell. I hate war. But I would hate a world without Israel far more.

Disaffected apologist for atrocities, those are live, unused shells. The nose cone and warhead are intact in the shell casing, which houses the propellant charge. Here is a picture of an unused shell being loaded into a cannon. Here is a picture of an empty shell casing, minus the warhead and nose cone. Here is an overview of artillery for your continuing education. There will be a pop quiz on this tomorrow; if you pass, you'll be able to post here again.

Debate tip for you: your arguments will appear more convincing and credible when your assertions are accurate.

SANTA BARBARA Dressed in black and their mouths taped shut, reporters and staff of the Santa Barbara News-Press staged a protest Friday over a recent wave of resignations at the newspaper.

More than 300 supporters roared with applause and shouts when about 25 News-Press employees emerged from the newspaper's Spanish-style landmark building and walked to a microphone in an adjacent park.

Reporter Melinda Burns said newspaper staffers have been ordered not to speak about internal operations and were threatened with dismissal if they did.

"We are very sorry we can't speak, but thank you for coming," she said, stepping away from the microphone as members of the group put duct tape over their mouths. Many in the crowd hoisted signs, including ones that read: "Free the News" and "No More News Suppress."

The protest was the latest public display of newsroom tension that began when staff accused the daily's owner of meddling in news coverage. Six top editors and two writers have resigned, and a copy editor quit Friday.

One of those who resigned, reporter Scott Hadly, said a list of demands was presented to management Thursday. He said they want restoration of journalistic ethics, reinstatement of editors who were forced to resign, new contract negotiations and recognition of the Teamsters union as their exclusive bargaining unit.

Interim publisher Travis Armstrong said he blamed the protest partly on the paper's enemies, among them developers and politicians.

Armstrong said employees who protested would not be disciplined, adding he was disappointed by how the newspaper's order not to discuss internal operations had been portrayed.

Those who quit have said owner Wendy McCaw killed a story about Armstrong's recent sentencing for drunken driving. The newspaper had previously reported on his arrest.

She has said the resignations were prompted by her unwillingness to let editors and reporters "flavor the news with their personal opinions."

The News-Press, founded in 1855, is locally owned and published by McCaw's Ampersand Publishing LLC, which bought the paper in 2000 from the New York Times Co. It has a 57-person editorial staff, publishes seven days a week and has a daily circulation of about 41,000.

He told journalists there that he had nothing to do with the attacks on New York and Washington, and had been in Morocco when they happened. He has contacted both the Saudi and American authorities, according to Saudi press reports.

He acknowledges that he attended flight training school at Daytona Beach in the United States, and is indeed the same Waleed Al Shehri to whom the FBI has been referring.

But, he says, he left the United States in September last year, became a pilot with Saudi Arabian airlines and is currently on a further training course in Morocco.

Mistaken identity

Abdulaziz Al Omari, another of the Flight 11 hijack suspects, has also been quoted in Arab news reports.

Abdelaziz Al OmariAbdelaziz Al Omari 'lost his passport in Denver'He says he is an engineer with Saudi Telecoms, and that he lost his passport while studying in Denver.

Another man with exactly the same name surfaced on the pages of the English-language Arab News.

The second Abdulaziz Al Omari is a pilot for Saudi Arabian Airlines, the report says.

I guess you're too subversive for our delicate eyes at USAF bases in [DELETED]. This Monday morning I tried to access your page from work and was greeted by an 'unauthorized: personal/politics' banner.

We have no trouble reading Drudge, NewsMax, FreeRepublic, and WorldNetDaily. I guess I'll have to wait till I get home to see some 'reality-based' information.

Keep up the good work...

I've been noticing substantially fewer .mil visits lately. Actually, I'm not getting any visits at all from .mil, that I can ID as .mil. Cryptogon used to get hundreds per day. I just assumed that They they started routing the traffic through nodes that resolved back to civilian networks. But maybe not...

It's probably safe to assume that Full Spectrum Dominance applies to the brains of military personnel, and hence the firewall 'approved access' list.

Here's a free (but check out their paid offerings), easy-to-setup tool for folks who are trying to use the web from behind restrictive firewalls: logmein.com.

If you can reach logmein.com from your browser, you can take remote control of any computer that has free access to the Internet; your home computer, for example. Then you will be able to browse cryptogon.com and any other sites that are blocked from work. (Until the donkeys wake up and block logmein.com, of course.) This was an excellent solution for me when I worked for a criminal Wall Street bank that had restrictive firewall policies.

NOTE: If your network warlord is logging keystrokes, it will be able to gain control of your PC. Be careful!

UNITED NATIONS (AFP) - US Ambassador John Bolton said there was no moral equivalence between the civilian casualties from the Israeli raids in Lebanon and those killed inIsrael from "malicious terrorist acts".ADVERTISEMENT

Asked to comment on the deaths in an Israeli air strike of eight Canadian citizens in southern Lebanon Sunday, he said: "it is a matter of great concern to us ...that these civilian deaths are occurring. It's a tragedy."

"I think it would be a mistake to ascribe moral equivalence to civilians who die as the direct result of malicious terrorist acts," he added, while defending as "self-defense" Israel's military action, which has had "the tragic and unfortunate consequence of civilian deaths".

The eight dead Canadians were a Lebanese-Canadian couple, their four children, his mother and an uncle, said relatives in Montreal.

The Montreal pharmacist and his family had arrived in Lebanon 10 days earlier for a vacation in his parents' home village and to introduce his children to relatives, they said.

Three of his Lebanese relatives died too, a family member told AFP.

"It's simply not the same thing to say that it's the same act to deliberately target innocent civilians, to desire their deaths, to fire rockets and use explosive devices or kidnapping versus the sad and highly unfortunate consequences of self-defense," Bolton noted.

The overall civilian death toll from the Israeli onslaught in Lebanon since last Wednesday reached 195, in addition to 12 soldiers, officials said. Twenty-four Israelis have also been killed since fighting began last Wednesday, including 12 civilians in a barrage of Hezbollah rocket fire across the border.

READ THIS CAREFULLY, other "News" stations are MISLEADING YOU. The people died from BUILDING COLLAPSE, NOT A TSUNAMI ------------------- why am I emphasizing this INPORTANT FACT, because a "tsunami" can ONLY BE CAUSED BY A DISPLACEMENT OF WATER BY ANOTHER OBJECT OF SIMILAR SIZE ------------------ in other words, the Tsunami of 2005 was NOT NATURAL..........

............ I'll let you more intelligent readers think about that for a moment. Once you figured the "secret" of how that happen out, you'll get goose bumps all over. And it helps if you're an expert in seismology, as I am. But, use common sense, and fundamental PHSYICAL PRINCIPLES and you'll figure it out. Just like in the "free-fall" of the World Trade Centres (WTC) --- which feel at free-fall speed. In physical terms, that means the STEEL AND CONCRETE COLLUMNS BELOW OFFERED VIRTUALLY ZERO RESISTANCE.

............ For those with a strong science, engineering or mathematical background, that's one HELL of a red siren. That's just NOT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE according to the "official" story ----- not possible by a LONG SHOT!

Jakarta (AsiaNews) – Thousands of residents of the southern Indonesian provinces of Central Java and Java West are fleeing after a tsunami was triggered by an underwater quake off the coast of Jakarta. So far 37 people have been reported killed, but in a public statement Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said the death toll is only provisional. Search and rescue operations are still underway.

The seaquake was set off by an earthquake that measured 7.2 on the Richter scale some 355 kilometres south of Jakarta at the bottom of the Indian Ocean.

A two-metre wave hit the coastal region near Cilacap, a tourist resort where state-owned Pertamina Oil Company has important facilities, and the beach town of Pangandaran, which is

State-owned TV was able to broadcast eyewitness accounts of the disaster from the affected area. Teddy, a survivor, said that “people panicked right away. Waves wiped out all the food stands and houses along the beach”.

In both resorts traffic is heavy and in one direction: out. People are fleeing for higher and safer ground leaving everything behind.

“Everyone ion Pangandaran is scared to death,” said Iwan, a local resident. “Hotels, bungalows, villas, bars have been swept away by the sea. People are running away unconcerned about their property, running for their lives.”

Today’s tsunami is a reminder of the December 26, 2004, tragedy that struck several countries around the Indian Ocean, especially Indonesia which suffered more than 140,000 dead.

Note how they "reinforce" the deaths of 140,000 (actually its now accounted for over 220,000) were "caused" by the tsunami ---- that's because there's been a "leak" of information on the INTERNET OF WHAT REALLY HAPPENED!

PLEASE OBSERVE THE PHOTOS --------------- Building Collapses. Death from building collapse, NOT the 'tsunami' (which is a little ripple, 2 m high at most by the sea shore, nothing, NOTHING compired to Dec 2004). Also note the people displaced, 23,000, is FROM LINGERING FEAR of what happened in Dec 2004. Nothing more.

And that, boys and girls is the key ----------------- Archimedes principle: "To cause water to be displace, and equal volume must occupy its previous location." -------------------

A very simple PHYSICAL LAW/CONCEPT, but none-the-less VERY REVEALING. Just like the "molten steel" that was quickly removed from the wreckage scene of 9/11 ---- to cause HIGH-GRADE reinforced steel to MELT, would require VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES.

Toll rises from Indonesia tsunami

Tuesday 18 July 2006, 7:34 Makka Time, 4:34 GMT

Indonesia sits along a belt of volcanic and seismic activity

At least 201 people have died and 125 are missing after a tsunami struck Indonesia's Java island, the head of the crisis centre at the health ministry says.

Nearly 300 people were reported injured on Tuesday and over 23,000 people have been displaced in the tsunami that followed an earthquake.

A French national was among the dead, and two Dutch and four Japanese were among the injured.

Two Swedish children were reported missing on Monday, a diplomatic source said.

At least three other districts were affected by the waves but Ciamis was the worst-hit by Monday's tsunami.

Regional agencies had sent out tsunami warnings after an undersea earthquake struck 180km off Pangandaran.

But the alerts did not reach the victims because Java - which only seven weeks ago was rocked by a powerful quake that killed thousands and left a million homeless - does not have a tsunami warning system.

The hardest-hit area appeared to be Pangandaran, a beach resort 270km southeast of Jakarta popular with local and foreign tourists.

Witnesses said people shouted "tsunami! tsunami!" and climbed trees or crowded inland mosques as the wave approached.

The 7.2 magnitude quake, whose epicentre was more than 40km under the Indian Ocean, hit at 0819 GMT.

That's right: the solution to the current crisis has been found, right in our very own Bible. The Rapture Ready Team is with us to interpret the relevant passages of G*D's LOVE for us. Bless them.

You will learn of Israel's SECRET WEAPON: Israel is supernaturally protected! His heavenly all-powerful mightyness who, through his son on Earth, George W. Bush, has a plan to save us all. Israel can disarm, scrap its nukes, dismantle Dimona, destroy its chemical weapons, free its prisoners, and befriend former foes. Why? Because Israel is supernaturally protected!

We continue now with G*D's peace plan, as interpreted by the Rapture Ready (TM) Team, why peace is upon us, Israel can ceasefire, and both sides can disarm for good. The actual, uncensored virtual roundtable dialogue follows. Listen carefully to G*D's LOVE:

===I dont know where I have come up with this but for some reason I keep thinking Israel is supposed to be supernaturally protected from being destroyed. Any scriptures or comments please. It may be just because of the Left Behind 2nd movie who knows. Surely Israel isnt going to be destroyed with WMD, chemical or biological right?==="um, no"===1, Try Ezekiel 38 - 39.

2, NO, of course not. Where would Jesus go to set up the Millenium Kingdom?===[clapping while she types] GOD's chosen ppl, his land that he gave them, I hink not. Big daddy will take care of anyone who makes war against them if it's not in his plan..===No, isn't there a verse in the Bible that says that either 1/3 or 2/3 of Jerusalem will be destroyed during the Tribulation?===They will suffer through the tribulation Jerusalem especially. Here is the verse.The city shall be attacked, it won't be good.

Zech. 13:7-14:3 (KJV)Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the Lord of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones. [8] And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. [9] And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.[14:1] Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. [2] For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. [3] Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.===What is your question? That the land won't be destroyed, the buildings, Israel as a nation, are that the people won't never suffer harm. I think that Israel won't be destroyed as a nation. that was part of his promise to bring them back. I do not think this promise includes divine protection on the whole pop.===Right happy day, they will never cease to be a nation again and they will be protected by God. On the other hand, they will suffer judgement, the entire tribulation is for Israel, to bring them back to God.===They will also not come out of these wars unscathed. They will be seriously hurt, but not to death.===I think they could get hit with a WMD that would cause them to destroy Demascus, but this would not destroy Israel but may cause a great deal of casualities. I do think in the future wars with Russia and Iran, God will supernaturally protect Israel, I say this because as I watch, I think what if those missiles that are hitting were nukes or bio weapons.===we know that they were supernaturaly protected during the 6 day war...angels..and when they were bombed the gas lines or something like that had been drained...for repair....that was big...sooo but God still has to get their attention....that is what it is all about....and that is what i keep praying for..===

This missile/shell signing isn't really new. I remember sometime in the Operation "Desert Fox" against Iraq, one missile was signed: "This is a Ramadan present from Chad Rickenberg", "The boys at the ville say hello", etc..

The world would be a rather terrible place without Israel. You just don't see it. Israel is protecting YOUR freedom - and you don't see it.

Hamas, Hezbollah, al queda - it's all from one source. Iran. Israel is fighting a war the US is unwilling to fight. You are too blind to see it.

Given pretty much every single thing you write is a total and utter lie or manipulation, I admit I jumped too quickly in judgment that the shells were 100% dead shells. I admit now that I was hasty to jumping to that conclusion. But that still is nothing compared to the disgusting way the Palestinians dress their children up as martyrs and send them to their death. Or the way they tear apart dead bodies of Israelis they find on the street, and take pictures. I find that a thousand times deplorable. And I have yet to see you post a single picture of any of that, or get upset with any of that. Jewish life doesn't matter, right? Who cares, it's just a dead Jew, or just a dead Israeli, no big deal, right? Oh, right...you also fail to get upset about Muslim terrorism against fellow Muslims. Like the fact that a suicide bomber in Iraq killed 24 people the other day. That was a Muslim killing another Muslim, so who gives a shit, right? It's only of signficance when Israel or the US is involved, huh?

War is hell. Israel is a great place to be if you are Arab Israeli (no matter what you think - it is - given the alternatives in the Middle East to say the VERY least), and it WOULD be a great place to be during times of peace for the Palestinians in the territories. (Well, Neo-Palestinians. In fact, Jews have a longer and more continuous land claim than the so-called "Palestinians, who should really be called Trans-Jordanians, but that is a different story)

The Palestinians brought this on themselves. Hamas kidnapped an Israeli soldier, and has fired missiles into Israel for months now. Same with Hezbollah. Those are acts of WAR. Israel has a right to defend itself. It's so easy for you to say Israel should just lay down and die, being Arab (and hating Israel, of course), and being in the US.

Ever think, though, what life is like as even an Arab Israeli near Haifa? They have to deal with a constant barrage of rockets from Hezbollah, just as the Jewish Israelis have to deal with it. When you deny Israel the right to defend itself, you also deny it the right to defend the Arab Israelis.

Without Israel, most of the Middle East would erupt into utter chaos. Hatred of the one Jewish state is the one thing that unifies the Middle East. Hatred of the state that has the highest human rights standard (by far) in the Middle East is the one thing that keeps civil war from breaking out.

There is a saying "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

That's how the Middle East works. Israel is ironically keeping the peace just by its very existence.

"The world would be a rather terrible place without Israel. You just don't see it. Israel is protecting YOUR freedom - and you don't see it."

Now that makes a lot of sense.

"Hamas, Hezbollah, al queda - it's all from one source. Iran. Israel is fighting a war the US is unwilling to fight. You are too blind to see it."

If Israel disappeared, Iran wouldn't take its place by bullying the countries around it.

"Given pretty much every single thing you write is a total and utter lie or manipulation.."

The biggest liar here is the western media. Qrswave brings credible evidence for everything that's written here. You're living in denial.

"War is hell. Israel is a great place to be if you are Arab Israeli (no matter what you think - it is - given the alternatives in the Middle East to say the VERY least), and it WOULD be a great place to be during times of peace for the Palestinians in the territories."

That doesn't justify anything.

"The Palestinians brought this on themselves. Hamas kidnapped an Israeli soldier .."

.. after Israel shelled a beach, killing 8 innocent people and blatantly lying and saying it could've been a palestinian mine (WTF!!).

"Israel has a right to defend itself.."

.. against retaliation against what it has done first. Yes of course, how dare those arab idiots strike back.. Shame on them.

"Ever think, though, what life is like as even an Arab Israeli near Haifa?"

Ever think what life is like as an Arab in Gaza, at this very moment? Think about that for a second.

"They have to deal with a constant barrage of rockets from Hezbollah, just as the Jewish Israelis have to deal with it."

What came first, Hezbollah rockets, or the Israeli raids on Gaza and Lebanon, hm?

"When you deny Israel the right to defend itself, you also deny it the right to defend the Arab Israelis."

You just denied the Arabs the right of defending themselves further up.

"Without Israel, most of the Middle East would erupt into utter chaos. Hatred of the one Jewish state is the one thing that unifies the Middle East. Hatred of the state that has the highest human rights standard (by far) in the Middle East is the one thing that keeps civil war from breaking out."

You _are_ aware of how dumb that sounds aren't you? In the late 90s, before the Intifada started, there was no fighting in this region, and the Middle east didn't go down in chaos. If Israel disappears, Arab countries would rejoice, there wouldn't be any civil war. You make it sound like Israel is the middle eastern police or something, trying to sought peace between the Arab countries that absolutely detest each other and would love to tear each other apart. Please tell me that, I beg you, so I can have a really good reason to label you a dimwit.0

a) The Gaza shelling was found to have been caused by the Palestinians. And even the totally biased Human Rights Watch found that at worst it was an accident on Israel's part.

b) The Intifada was wholly started by Arafat, after he refused the deal at Camp David in 2000.

c) So you are arguing that terrorist organizations have a right to defend themselves???

d) Israel keeps the peace by being a common state that to hate. By hating Israel, the Arabs in the Middle East ignore the oppressive regimes that litter the Middle East. Should Israel cease to exist, utter chaos and civil war would likely break out, as the ultimate "wedge issue" would fall away.

The Palestinians were offered MANY peace deals - and turn them down each time, opting instead for violence.

I believe I speak for most of Israelis when I say that I am alll for a Palestinian state, but only under the following conditions:

1) A formal recognition of Israel's right to exist; 2) Laying down of arms; 3) Pledge to end terror; 4) Evidence that the Palestinians can actually be peace partners.

Until all four conditions are met, I am wholly against giving away even a single centimeter of Israeli land to the Palestinians. They have proven to only use their land as a launch pad for terror.

Ironically, this blog's continued support for violence against Israel, it guarantees the Palestinians will NOT have their own state anytime soon. It is clear that unless those four conditions are met, the Palestinians WILL NOT get their own state.

qrswave, if you actually gave half a shit about the Palestinians, you would be focusing on those four conditions.

But you don't care about the Palestinians. You hate Israel, but you don't actually give a shit about the Palestinians.

The highly biased Human Rights Watch provided no proof that - even if the Gaza beach shelling was Israel's fault - it wasn't an accident. They provided no proof that disproves that. Go to the Human Rights Watch website yourself.

"So you are arguing that terrorist organizations have a right to defend themselves???"

Any human being has the right to defend themselves. Especially if the other side is another terrorist organization.

"Israel keeps the peace by being a common state that to hate. By hating Israel, the Arabs in the Middle East ignore the oppressive regimes that litter the Middle East. Should Israel cease to exist, utter chaos and civil war would likely break out, as the ultimate "wedge issue" would fall away."

And what do the oppressive regimes have anything to do with this? Yes we have oppressive regimes, and yes, we want them gone. So friggin what? That has absolutely squat to do with this Israeli conflict. We've had oppressive governments since 1952. So we have to thank Israel because they're preventing us from fighting against those regimes and getting into trouble? I really don't see any logic in that. Sooner or later they'll have to go anyway, regardless of whether we are fighting a common enemy or not.

"The Palestinians were offered MANY peace deals - and turn them down each time, opting instead for violence."

"I believe I speak for most of Israelis when I say that I am alll for a Palestinian state, but only under the following conditions:

1) A formal recognition of Israel's right to exist; 2) Laying down of arms; 3) Pledge to end terror; 4) Evidence that the Palestinians can actually be peace partners.Until all four conditions are met, I am wholly against giving away even a single centimeter of Israeli land to the Palestinians. They have proven to only use their land as a launch pad for terror."

Seeing what Israel has been doing for quite I while, I strongly DOUBT that Israel would stop its crimes straight after the violence from the Palestinian side stops. Don't think that stopping that violence is the magic card for peace around the area. And for your information, the Palestinians are thinking EXACTLY the same towards Israel. They barely see any good intentions from the Israeli side, and won't stop fighting until they see the EXACT SAME CONDITIONS.

It won't work from one side, sorry to tell you. The Israeli government has to do the same. And if it doesn't, then it will once again prove it's own treachery.

You are a vile human being if you believe a terror organization deserves the right to self defense. So I guess La Cosa Nostra and drug cartels similarly deserves that, huh?

Link 1: Hamas wanted a "truce" without disarming, merely so they can regroup and reload weaponry. Israel was right to reject the "truce."

Link 2: Total mistake of fact later disproven by history - Hamas never did accept Israel!

Link 3: Same

Link 4: Who gives a flying fuck if Amnesty slams Israel? Amnesty International has delegimized itself as an international organization years ago. They have given more human rights violations to Israel than the Sudan (where there is an outright genocide at the moment), Iran, Saudi Arabia, China, and North Korea. ISRAEL gets these human rights violations. PLEASE. AI has an agenda they are pushing. That is the bottom line.

If terror organizations don't deserve self defense then the state of Israel, which was founded by Irgun and Stern Gang terrorists (who had an ugly habit of collaborating with the Nazis, by the way) is not deserving of self defense. Such is the logic of 'disaffected youth.'

The fact of the matter is that Zionism is nothing more than a socialist form of idol worship; instead of revering G-d and his commandments, a piece of real estate is worshipped in his place and his commandments are ignored. Nobody remembers that G-d's granting of title to Israel was conditional upon the Hebrews keeping his commandments.

I'd be very interested to hear how bearing false witness against your neighbor, coveting his land and killing his brethren is in any way related to keeping G-d's commandments. It is obvious that Hamas and Hezbollah are apostate organizations. What's Israel's excuse?

The Irgun and Stern Gang were JEWISH and did not collaborate with the Nazis. No, they worked AGAINST the Nazis.

In fact, it was the Palestinians who collaborated with the Nazis. Look up the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. He recruited 20,000 'Palestinians' (I use that term loosely because Jews are really the original 'Palestinians') to kill Jews in Hungary and Croatia.

As far as everything else. You are wrong. Zionism is merely a belief in a Jewish homeland, and particularly one in the State of Israel. That's all it is. Arab Israelis have full citizenship rights and are treated better within Israel than what they can expect in most of the Middle East.

The "shells" in the pictures are howitzer rounds, and they are unfired. The howitzer in the background looks like it could be a US M109, which the IDF does have. I don't know if the rounds are M109 rounds. The photos could be captured munitions, but I doubt any responsible parent would let their kids play in a front-line position.

Disaffected youth is an obvious shill. No one is stupid enough to believe that spent artillery shells or bullets fall from the sky in perfect condition to be used again and again. Chances are he's working for the Rendon group or a like organization (http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/8798997/the_man_who_sold_the_war/) He gets paid to waste your time with patently ridiculous, spurious arguments which he doesn't believe any more than anyone else here does. Just ignore him.

"Arab Israelis have full citizenship rights and are treated better within Israel than what they can expect in most of the Middle East."

LOL...you really are clueless.

Since 1967, when Israel conquered these areas (the final 22 percent of mandatory Palestine), Palestinians have been living under Israeli military occupation. While in some parts Israel has allowed a Palestinian “autonomous” entity to take on such municipal functions as education, health care, infrastructure and policing, Israel retains overall power.

According to international law, an occupying force is responsible for the protection of the civilian population living under its control. Israel, however, ignores this requirement, routinely committing violations of the Geneva Conventions, a set of principles instituted after World War II to ensure that civilians would “never again” suffer as they had under Nazi occupation. Israel is one of the leading violators of these conventions today.

Israeli forces regularly confiscate private land; imprison individuals without process – including children – and physically abuse them under incarceration; demolish family homes; bulldoze orchards and crops; place entire towns under curfew; destroy shops and businesses; shoot, maim, and kill civilians – and Palestinians are without power to stop any of it.

"I see no evidence that those missiles are going out. NONE. The link I saw merely said they were shells. I find it hard to believe that Israeli shells are left out in the open for people to sign like that.Okay, I may be wrong. They could be outgoing shells - I looked it up and it didn't say either way whether it was an incoming or outgoing shell. I still see no proof that the children wrote that everyone must die."

I see a lot of conflict in your posts. There is a solution that brings peace and confidence. I also find it hard to believe they would be allowed to sign shells like that but THEY ARE. I find everything that zionists do 'hard to believe' probably because their mentality requires that the brain be hard wired to hate.

Many Orthodox Jews are just as opposed to the existence of zionist 'israel' as the people on this forum and ironically they are NOT filled with the same measure of hate that zionists are, so that reveals the nature of zionism.

Stick around the more you hear and read the truth the better chance you stand of having your eyes opened.

It's certainly appalling to see children do this. Try to forgive them, they are too young to fully understand what they are doing. They are simply reflecting the hatred of adults, quite likely their parents. Perhaps one day they will look back on these pictures in shame and regret.

"I corrected myself, in contrast to the commentator. Will you? Especially given the sand monkey link I sent re: this story.

Of course not.

Hate, hate, hate, that's all that rules your day."

Those are live shells. If they were incoming rockets from Lebanon they would be dented, unreadable, or would have been most likely totally destroyed upon impact. If they were duds they would have been buried in the ground and also dented and unreadable. These show no signs of having been buried in the dirt.

No, those are more than likely tank rounds to be used by that Israeli tank sitting in the background. I would say HE/DP rounds or similar as I double that tank is firing smoke or something.

The shells are almost certainly 155mm artillery shells which will be fired by the M109 155mm Self Propelled Howitzer (the 'tank' you see in the background), see http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m109.htm . The tip of the shells (that green cone) is the fuse for the shell (probably air burst with contact back up). These round are ABSOLUTELY/POSITIVELY not used (i.e. they have yet to be fired). The reason for this are simple; they are stacked in a neat row and show no damage. Any artillery round which has been fired and landed as a dud will be bent and distorted, these shells are pristine and unfired.

No one in their right mind would let a child near a shell that had failed to explode. The fuzing state of an unexploded shell is unknown and therefore extremely dangerous. Militaries maintain highly trained teams to deal with unexploded ordinance. It is deadly and demanding work. And under NO circumstance would multiple pieces of unexploded ordinance be stacked together as in this photo; that would multiply the risk.

Also, these are artillery shells. Hezbollah uses rockets.

I can say with 100% certainty that these are Israeli artillery shells that have yet to be fired.

Are you people awake? Of course those shells are live. Everyone knows that. And the act of writing messages on outgoing shells and bombs was originated in the United States. Either you guys are young and dumb, or you need to brush up on American history. Israel is who they are now because WE made them that way. They emulate the United States in everything that they do. Israel is interested in syria and Iran, and dragging "daddy" (the U.S.) in to do all the dirty work for them. So, Wake up, Turn off puff daddy, and let's do something to stop Israel now.

Zionists and Israel is the cancer of humanity and the only cure for this disease to to heavily radiate that region and kill all the detritis illegally occupying that area and terrorizing the world. These dirty fucks deserve every horrible infliction possible because this is the only way they will learn. Give them a heavy dose of what they give the world.

"The Irgun and Stern Gang were JEWISH and did not collaborate with the Nazis. No, they worked AGAINST the Nazis."

By blowing up British military installations and civilian hotels in Palestine during World War II and afterwards, no less.

Don't forget it was the World Zionist Congress that blocked the emigration of Hungarian Jews from Nazi controlled Europe to the U.S. because they were not going to Palestine.

"As far as everything else. You are wrong. Zionism is merely a belief in a Jewish homeland, and particularly one in the State of Israel. That's all it is. Arab Israelis have full citizenship rights and are treated better within Israel than what they can expect in most of the Middle East."

Except that Arab Israelis are forbidden by law to marry Jewish Israelis. Nor are they allowed to serve in the IDF. And if they're especially good, they might be allowed to catch a frisbee thrown by a Jewish Israeli, but only while leaping mid-air and catching it between their teeth.

You can polish that apartheid turd all you want, but in the end it's still just a turd. It's nice of you to justify beliefs in a Jewish homeland while keeping G-d out of the discussion. I suggest you reread Numbers and Deuteronomy to find the TRUE basis for G-d's title of ownership for the Holy Land. It has to do with keeping his commandments-period.

I looked at the site you mentioned and read the explanation. It certainly could be plausable in my view. Especially the portion where Lisa stated about the twelve foreign photographers egging the kids on when they came out of the bomb shelters. I also found the comment "Hey, your cousins in America will see you." very telling. The last paragraph though makes perfect sense:

"and a big problem is that the israeli tv does not show deadlebanese. it shows destroyed buildings, but not dead bodies. so no one has aface of the dead in their minds. too aware of our own suffering, etc."

Thats exactly how the Iraq and Afghan wars were shown here in the U.S. Few, if any civilian casualties were shown unless they were killed by the so called "terrorists". If this is accurate, its sad to see adults using children as a propaganda tool.

1) Arab Israelis in fact are allowed to marry Jewish Israelis. They were always allowed civil unions, but a recent Israeli Supreme Court opinion also gives them the right to marry.

2) You are flat out wrong re: Irgun/Stern blocking efforts to save the Jews. They did the exact opposite.

3) Irgun/Stern attacked British military installations, and I don't defend all they did. However, they did that because the Brits were siding with the Palestinians at the time and they were trying to apply pressure to the Brits. I don't think it's okay, what they did. But that is not the same as helping Hitler. Irgun/Stern did not help Hitler. The Palestinians helped Hitler. It's called BOOKS. READ THEM. LOOK UP THE FACTS.

4) There is no apartheid in Israel. I bet you don't even know what apartheid means.

I also am an atheist and don't give a crap what the bible says, and don't base the notion of a Jewish state on the bible. Israel is a righteous state, and the one democracy in the region. Yes, I back Israel.

Sandmonkey (appropriately named) said (quoting the source explaining the images):

"so the kids, who were bored and restless and had been cooped up in bomb shelters for 5 days, took the felt markers and drew messages to nasrallah

there were no cries of hatred toward lebanese

and a big problem is that the israeli tv does not show deadlebanese. it shows destroyed buildings, but not dead bodies. so no one has a face of the dead in their minds. too aware of our own suffering, etc.

make sense?"

NO. You stupid MF, it doesn't 'make sense.'

These girls are obviously old enough to understand that bombs kill people and that dying isn't fun.

Moreover, having been in a constant state of warfare (by choice) for over 50 years, I am certain that these "little" girls are familiar with exactly how those big metal things WORK.

And even if they aren't - I see two mother figures in the background - they most certainly know what they're letting these girls do.

It is SICK and TWISTED and there is no explanation that can excuse it.

However, there is some truth in what he said:

Israelis ARE classicly "too aware of [their] own suffering."

They suffer from Narcissistic Paranoid Delusions and it results in just this kind of psychotic disregard for the lives of others.

You are the narcissist. You are the one who believes Israeli life is insignificant. I actually am upset about the death of Lebanese. You don't give a shit about the death of Israelis - at least from everything I have seen on your site.

And note the part about no calls of hatred towards the Lebanese.

Let me add one more thing. I do think it was extreme negligence on Israel's part to allow kids into a war zone, and someone should be prosecuted for that one. I didn't believe that such negligence was possible on Israel's part, so I had a knee jerk reaction that it was impossible. I take that back. But this has been blown up beyond all proportion of what happened.

That said, I automatically disbelieved qrswave's site because of the extreme hate-based (and low-fact based) nature of it all.

At Tue Jul 18, 02:22:45 PM EDT, qrswave said..."And even if they aren't - I see two mother figures in the background - they most certainly know what they're letting these girls do.

This is true. In either case, its sick and twisted. Hell, I bet the mother types standing in the background where smiling like the devil himself while they egged the children on. Definately sick. The hatred is on both sides and always has been.

The assassination of the Count occurred years after the Holocaust. It has nothing to do with Irgun/Stern supporting the Nazis. It was done by an Israeli rebel group I never said I supported - the Lehi - and not by the Haganah.

Those are not dead shells those are brand new ones. You can see the helmet heads are new and shinny, and it is written the made in hebrew, so I wonder if Hezbollah is using jewish shells? dear jews we are not that idiots as you may think

There is no defense for these images. To be fair, I've seen simillar images of armed Palestinian children. This is simply madness and it must stop...

According to AFP -http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060717/pl_afp/mideastconflictlebanon_060717204728

"The overall civilian death toll from the Israeli onslaught in Lebanon since last Wednesday reached 195, in addition to 12 soldiers, officials said. Twenty-four Israelis have also been killed since fighting began last Wednesday, including 12 civilians in a barrage of Hezbollah rocket fire across the border."

So according to these numbers, the Lebanese offensive has a civilian collateral death rate of a whopping 50%!! That's pretty high, even considering that many of their rockets are quite primitive.

What do the Israeli numbers say... hrmm, 207 kills, 195 of them civilian...er... wtf??? 94% of those killed by Israelis have been civilians? Even with their laser guided smart bombs and other precision munitions? How can this possibly be? What's happening is obvious... collective punishment with no regard for civilians. Who are the terrorists?

1) Arab Israelis in fact are allowed to marry Jewish Israelis. They were always allowed civil unions, but a recent Israeli Supreme Court opinion also gives them the right to marry.

2) You are flat out wrong re: . They did the exact opposite.

3) Irgun/Stern attacked British military installations, and I don't defend all they did.

4) There is no apartheid in Israel. I bet you don't even know what apartheid means."

It is apparent that are in need of educating yourself as to the facts of history. First off start with The Transfer Agreement by Edwin Black, then move onto 51 Documents;Zionist Collaboration with the Nazis, then Perfidy by Ben Hecht, then you can pick up The Life and Times of Menachem Begin by Amos Perlmutter.

I guarantee you by the time you finish those books, whether or not you're an 'atheist' you'll change your mind about your support of 'israel'.

Israel’s “Demographic Demon” in Court

Jonathan Cook

June 1, 2006http://cc.msnscache.com/cache.aspx?q=3786220137275&lang=en-US&mkt=en-US&FORM=CVREA low-key but injudicious war of words briefly broke out between Israel’s two most senior judges in the wake of the May 2006 decision by the Supreme Court to uphold the constitutionality of the Nationality and Entry into Israel Law. A temporary measure passed by the Knesset in July 2003, the law effectively bans marriages between Palestinians in the Occupied Territories and Israeli citizens.

PLEASE NOTE THAT MARRIAGES ARE BANNED. I even supplied the link so you can check it out yourself.

Your platform continues to shrink. If you build your house on sand you don't stand a chance when the rains come.

"He was referring to failed attempts by Israeli political leaders to legislate some form of marriage or "civil union" for those who don't want or can't have Orthodox weddings."

He is talking about 'civil unions' between 'israelis'. NOW compare3 that statement with this one:"May 2006 decision by the Supreme Court to uphold the constitutionality of the Nationality and Entry into Israel Law. A temporary measure passed by the Knesset in July 2003, the law effectively bans marriages between Palestinians in the Occupied Territories and Israeli citizens."

WHICH BANS PALESTINIANS AND 'israelis' FROM MARRYING. If that isn't racism and apartheid then I don't know the meaning of the word.

If you are a non-Jew in Israel your car must have a different colored license plate. If you are a Palestinian and you marry an Israeli you can not live in Israel. You are disillusioned to think Israel is a peaceful free state. Much paranoia reigns. There will never be peace. It is the everlasting tradgedy created by man by his pride emotions and beliefs. We are all one race the human race and until Israeli leaders start thinking this way and making statements to this effect the region will never see peace.

The first soldier was dragged out of checkpoint which you seem not to know, or have conveniently forgotten, was a tank. Brilliant commando operation. Caught them with the lid open. The second two were in the "Shabba farms" region abutting the blue line and no matter what anyone in a suit says, that is part of Lebanon.

Correct. IDF should be shot on sight when intruding in another nation. What that said, I say the whole kidnapping caper is STAGED by MOSSAD elements within "Hamas" and even "Hezbollah." MOSSAD infiltrates these groups and makes them commit COINTEL type operations.

The current "operations" were in planning stages for the past 6 years. How do these so called "kidnappings" even factor into that? The bullshit smells something awful.

The only thing that I can say here first: Diaffected youth the world was pretty pleasant place to be without Israel for a very long time. Israel creates many problems and solves none. Encouraging this kind of sickness in children is MADNESS. Only a mentally disturbed person would not be able to see that. Israel is an arrogant, ignorant, exclusionistic and RACIST nation. It has given very little to the world and has taken much. One day you may awaken to this fact and find it is too late. Then you will forever be haunted by the madness that grips you now.

Save yourself, save your soul for there is no reward in Sheol for the mindless arrogance and wickedness that you support.

To Disaffected Youth: Go to David Icke's Website. There you will see a larger picture of the Israeli Children signing there name to the missiles. The inscription on one says: "From Israel and Daniele".

My point is they are sending the missiles to kill people. As an American I am ashamed. I have no love for Israel or Zionism.

I cannot wait for the draft to crank up in America. They are now getting the papers ready and all I can say is , YOU DESERVE IT!!

And if you refuse to go and fight , don't come to Canada, stay the hell out!! You can head-off to one of many Halliburton's cheapy little hotels. (You paid for them) Like Camp Cheney ,with electrical barb-wired wallpaper and miles of train tracks, I hear there's plenty of room out there.

The media is gearing you up to stick it out with Israel this Israel that, because it's all or nothing time. And dumbed down, weak minded American youth are ripe for the pickin's and are so retarded they are only good for one thing, now. Sweet, sweet War. So be happy, you get to kill them for real in the Mid-East, and not playing some childish video game. You will be men.

'If you are a non-Jew in Israel your car must have a different colored license plate. If you are a Palestinian and you marry an Israeli you can not live in Israel. You are disillusioned to think Israel is a peaceful free state.'

wow you must have different licence plate, sounds like we got a case of jewish nazis. the occupation jew terrorists seem very racist, shall we start with sanctions, no fly zones, un inspectors at the jew nuke facilities, freeze all accounts, and perhaps some shock and awe bombing.

"One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail." --Rabbi Ya'acov Perin in his eulogy at the funeral of mass murderer Dr. Baruch Goldstein (Cited in the New York Times, 02/28/1994.) "The thesis that the danger of genocide was hanging over us in June 1967 and that Israel was fighting for its physical existence is only bluff, which was born and developed after the war." Israeli General Matityahu Peled, Ha'aretz, 19 March 1972. "We have to kill all the Palestinians unless they are resigned to live here as slaves." Chairman Heilbrun of the Committee for the Re-election of General Shlomo Lahat, the mayor of Tel Aviv, October 1983.

I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it." - Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, October 3, 2001, to Shimon Peres, as reported on Kol Yisrael radioalso the first hijacking was done by jews against the syrians....i dont think you need me to get into the very very long list of jew war crimes

please dont assume that i say this represent how all jew think. these are just quote, perhaps you is assume too much ? just simply some quote by some jew leaders that should be seen. when u assume you make yourself look foolish no?

I hope the jewish war criminals are brought to trial, along with the great satans war criminals. How cowardly of the jews to bomb children and women and elderly to try to keep the land that they stole. The jews have always been a cowardly decieving people bent od death destruction killing babies and stealing land.

well we have some jew here i guess maybe 10 or 20 000. they is come here before because the christen try to kill them in euro and we give them shelters from christen terrorist. so many jew come to our lands before to escape the christen terrorist, now you see how the jew pay us back. they get ther jew childs to put name on bombs to kill our peoples, some way to pay us back from helping them live because we hide them from christen terrorist.

Americans (USA) have a tradition to write on their bombs, but than ofcourse done by airman or crewchiefs or maintenance guys. That's sick enough in itself, but to let children sign the granades is completely stupid, sickminded and evil as hell!!! Their mothers must be really sick bitches.

Have you ever stopped to think that you are only getting one side of the story from the zionist owned press.

The press never discuss Jewish theft of land, they never tell you how many deaths are on both sides. See "If Americans Only Knew" website. You will see Palestian death rate is much higher than the jewish.They have yet to fairly analyze the latest lie about the tunnel. As for the two kidnapped Israeli soldiers. Give me a break! The Israeli shelled and killed members of a family on a beach. They murder and imprison on a daily basis. By the Geneva Convention the Israeli are POW not like the innocent women and children the Israeli kill daily.

Disaffected Youth said: "That said, I automatically disbelieved qrswave's site because of the extreme hate-based (and low-fact based) nature of it all."

Qrswave said: "How pathetic.You're at this so-called "extreme hate-based (and low-fact based)" site practically every minute of the day.You're obsessed. And you're angry that I have a voice that I'm not afraid to use in defense of the defenseless."

Couldn't be more true. Jeez, dis. youth, you're here more than anybody else. And you aren't gaining much ground. There are credible links, pictures and articles posted here to back up everything. And you simply treat them as non-existant. I mean seriously, do you actually read that stuff? Just read it. Educate yourself. Don't be closed minded, because you WILL GET THWARTED. You actually do on a regular basis.

Face it, you're not changing anything here. If you don't like it, then just stay away. I don't go on visiting bulls*** anti-islamic websites and trolling there. As much as I would like to, I think there are better things I could do with my time (for example become a better muslim).

tons of shells that hit Isreal yet are intact and gathered by the military and put on racks used for outgoing missles? AP is not a good resource. And how ironic would it be if they were ones that hit Isreal, "all we want is love and peace from you while we're bombing the shit out of you." Amd those are not independent children doing it, you can see the military in the background.

dude, those are live ammo ready to be shelled into lebanon.what kind of moron will sign spent ammo?don't you supposed to sign them before you shoot them?why is this happening?because the situation of palestinians living in the gaza ghetto, and the west bank ghetto.this type of situation happened before to jews during WW2.did the jews remember the warsaw ghettos?did the jews learned something about it? it seems the are doing what it was done to them.why not give the palestinians their land, and forget the "Great Israel" plan, because it only causes death.why, if we the world is looking for a "nuclear free middle east", Israel does not get rid of their nuclear arsenal?what moral authority Israel has to tell other countries not to build nuclear arsenals and comply with UN resolutions, while Israel just plain ignore them.why the double standard?why the whole world gets it, but Israel?why is the purpose to destroy another country, isn't Palestine enough?why Israel is the only nation that has the "right to defend itself"?i am not racist or antisemitic, but i have to ask this questions, because it is driving me crazy..I NEVER HEARD OF ISRAEL RECOGNIZING THE EXISTANCE OF A PALESTINIAN STATE, SO WHY ISRAEL DOES ALL THIS SICK MIND GAMES IF THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO GIVE THE PAESTINIANS THE LAND THEY DESERVE.EVERYTIME THAT THEY ARE READY TO GIVE LAND, LIKE MAGIC SOMETHING HAPPEN, AND EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO SQUARE ONE, MAKES YOU WONDER...

Where were you flag waving SOB's when israel attacked the USS Liberty in international waters in June 1967 killing 32 US sailors and wounding 171 more? And by the way those F-16's and F-15's are US made as are the bombs used to kill civilians, and 8 Canadian in Lebanon. Where were you when the IDF killed Rachael Corrie, a US citizen in Palistine?Israel is not our friend and never will be.

A witness who lost loved ones and was herself injured , after returning from Lebanon ,went on the local news with a very interesting story.

It seems that the Canadian children that were killed by Israeli's , as they were trying to leave the area they were being shot at and ran back inside the building. And it was soon hit.

Jews killing Candians now.

So tell me, any Jew out there, does Canada speak in the defense of terrorists or are we anti-Jew if we don't like what you did to one of our own citizens?

We here in Canada believe in respect for one another. Now since it is clear you started the whole thing by attacking people on a beach and it is also clear you don't give a shit what anyone thinks, even your mutt America, I guess you are now at the point where Israel is a little crazy as well. One soldier of yours, you feel is worth a thousand Christians? Hmmmmm. OK. Let's play this right. The smart way.

God has punished Israel before, right? He took everything away from you and made you slaves.

Canadians have now seen the light by our own 'burning shrub to Bush' prime minister Harper's inactions and shallow sympathy ,as another Conservative Israeli puppet, just like Bush. Fortunately the Mexicans are getting rid of another Conservative attempt to steal an election. FUCK ALL CONSERVATIVES!!!! So we won't really give a rats dropping what he say's anymore. Canadians are pissed at Israel, and we know how you feel about stuff like that. Here's the catch.

If you think you can dance and get away with Canadian blood on your hands, forget it. We got the best fucking lawyers in the known universe, right here in Canada. So you better fucking hold on to your real God ( sweet sweet money), cause were gonna see your sorry ass-holes before a judge. Canada doesn't owe you shit, but you will pay for the deaths you caused and we're going to hit you where it hurts the most. Your wallets. Also a nice memorial dedicated to the Candadian people you crushed to death just might be a very good start,you will pay for that as well. So line up all your lawyers.

We shall not forget, ever.

We might be nice to strangers, but nobody ever MOTHER FUCKING FUCKS with us and walks away, pooh-poohing us.

What makes you so much more important anyway? You think your the only ones who have suffered?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I see more paid Zionists shills posting on the Internet to make it seem "grass roots". Pathetic Zionists, we the people of the world are FED UP with your shit, your back-stabbing, your assinations, your killings, your PLANNED WAR (using America as both a semi-willing and naive tool), of your "news" networks.

The INTERNET BELONGS TO US, THE PEOPLE! ------------- Get over it, you're TOO STUPID to understand something that is DEMOCRATICALLY OPERATED, UNCENSORED, AND EQUAL-ACCESS.

1. Disaffected Youth, you're not doing yourself or Israel any favours. Using a weak defense can be more damaging than sufferring a stong offense. You started this thread in a hole, and you need to stop digging.

If Arabia and Kuwait stopped selling oil to Israel, the black market arms trade between the countries would collapse. Of course we're concerned about the large hot spots, but never those really slow burning spots in Africa, East Asia and Latin America.

Without oil from the Gulf the Israeli murderers cannot fly their planes to bomb the Palestinians or Lebanese people."

That's a brilliant idea...but not sure what the second anonymous says:

Would you mind clarify your statement, 2ND Anonymous, because it doesn't make any sense?

--------------------------1) Why did Albert Einstein refer to Menachim Begin and his supporters as "Nazis", and "terrorists" and "fascists", disaffected youth??

2) Are you familiar with the letter Einstein co-wrote to the New York Times in 1948 concerning Begin's "terrorist party" and its activities?

and

3) (i) Who exterminated Count Folke Bernadotte --a man who organized the rescue of thousands of Jews from Nazi concentration camps - and (ii) what was the reason for doing so?------------------------

The Zionist replied only that some terrorist group she didn't personally approve of, had killed Bernadotte.

But the Israeli public by and large not only approved of the assassination of Bernadotte (a man who rescued thousands of Jews from Nazi concentration camps) - but THEY LATER CHOSE THE EXTERMINATOR AS PRIME MINISTER.

This killer of Peace Mediators, Yitzhak Shamir - a PRIME MINISTER OF ISREAL - was also famous for his 1941 efforts to forge a military agreement between his "terrorist organisation in Palestine" (Shamir's own words) and the Nazis.

Israeli was founded on terrorism by racist Nazis. Israel is Nazi to the core.

That is why Einstein described Begin and his Nazi-Fascist followers in such terms.

It is worth remembering that racist Zionists (sorry for the tautology) fail, on each and every occassion it is presented, to address the substance of Einstein's letter to the New York Times.~ Bernadotte II

What a shame!!!That proves what the Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him)told us that the children of Israel will multiply with lots of children and wealth but because of their arrogance they will never reach the top.They will go down.if Allah pleases and you can sense their arrogance and how they manipulate the news and the leaders of the western world to their advantage.It is like as if they have all been programmed and reading from the script when they speak on the news about Iran and Syria and that even that idiot in the south sings their tune.He does not have a personality of his own.How could these very same people who claim to have been gassed by the Nazi Germany institute the worst torture and cruelty and the worst atrocities to the Palestinian people?How?That shows that they have no spine.They are like serpents.Their fall will come eventually.I am not against the Jews but I can tell you this zionist state has committed the worst that the world has ever seen or witnessed and calling itslef a democracy.Why no one is doing any thing to the North Koreans?because they are all afraid of them and knowing that the Koreans will not take any shit from anyone.How many resolutions that were passed by the United Nations have been respected by this Zionist State?from the time that they took over the land of Palestine in 1948?today we keep on hearing the leader in the south barking about resolutions regarding the Syrians pulling out out of Lebanon and the disarmament of the Hezbullah!but the Zionist can cross borders and get into any country at will to liberate their soldiers and at the expense of damaging the infra structure of a country without disregard for human lives!What a shame.No one seems to mention their nuclear facility at Dimona which could bring about the worst nuclear disaster the like of Chernobyl in the former Soviet Union and this is no joke and has been reported by Mordechai Vanunu.Jews and Arabs have lived side by side for centuries up until the creation of the State of Israel and you will see that the western christian countries are openly supporting the Jewish State to kill Palestinian and Lebanese christians and where is the christian brotherhood here?Why they prefer a Jew over their own christian brothers and sisters?Strange ha!!!or may be they feel guilty for murdering the Jews in Europe and this is the repayment but at the expense of the poor Palestinian Arab lives.What a world.They are treated worst than animals but salvation will come by the will of God.Amin.

I knew there was a lie somewhere (because this blog almost NEVER gets its facts straight), and there was. As I have repeatedly linked to Sand Monkey, the actual things the kids were writing was:

"To Nasrallah, with love."

As in - they wanted to kill Nasrallah, not the Lebanese. Now it's total negligence to let kids near a war zone. But hardly is a sign of moral turpitude that Israeli children want to take out Nasrallah.

Um, no. As I stated, the assassination of the Count occurred years AFTER WWII. There was ZERO COLLABORATION between any Israeli and the Nazis. NONE. ZERO. ZILCH.

In contrast, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem - Palestinian leader - collaborated with Nazis and sent Palestinians to kill Jews. He was also Arafat's personal mentor. I also read that the name "Hitler" is a popular name for the Palestinians.

Always amusing hearing these little, pathetic Israel-supporters and their pathetic, but laughable, attempts to cover for the atrocities that Israel continues to commit against its neighbors. Some stellar examples:

"these were spent shells that landed on Israel...the girls were not writing messages of hate", etc.

Simply hilarious. Israel is clearly the most vicious, hateful, bigoted nation on Earth today, and the pictures, once again, prove it.

I proved in fact that the girls were NOT writing messages of hate. They were writing "To Nasrallah with love" and were provoked by the AP reporter. I was only wrong about them being dead missiles - which I admitted I was wrong about. In all senses, qrswave, as per usual, is a liar.

Disaffected youth said........"War is hell. Israel is a great place to be if you are Arab Israeli (no matter what you think - it is - given the alternatives in the Middle East to say the VERY least), and it WOULD be a great place to be during times of peace for the Palestinians in the territories." - Although I live in Canada, I can say from talking to others, Arab's included, that Israel is a great place to live. The current gov't there is certainly not doign enough to help the situation, but then again, no gov't is, even the always neutral Canadian gov't is becoming an American lab dog.

After reading as much information over the past few months on the state of the middle east, one comes to a number of conclusions. The main one of course, being that both sides have to work harder diplomatically to solve the underlying issues. Both sides are at fault, and both sides have to compromise together to work the situation out. I have come to the conclusion that by picking a side and arguing it to death....nothing will get solved, you have to be open and willing to talk, not fight about the issues.

It will talk alot of pride swallowing to solve the current crisis, and unfortunately for ALL humanity, that appears easier said then done.

I believe when America loses its current "world power" title, and the earth is governed by more then one country, things will start to look up, until then, America will simply with hold funding for peace, or sponsor extremists, or veto the environment....etc.....

allah knows that im dieing inside because theres nothing i can do to help but make du'a for my innocent brothers and sisters in lebanon,palestine,and iraq dieingat the hands of ignorant,selfish bastards and seeing these pics makes me sick to my stomatch!ma3salam Halimahmay allah be with us all and have mercy ameen

Anon said: "They should try to be like Palestinian kids, and strap on some dynamite and blow up some people on a bus."

Even if we assume arguendo, that images of Palestinian children with bombs strapped to their waists are not Israeli-produced propaganda.

It is both disengenuous and absurd to compare the careless, twisted, and heartless act of signing 'with love' a missile of death and destruction to the desperate REACTION of a child who, in a feeble attempt to avenge his humanity, commits SUICIDE in response to DECADES of SEVERE, BRUTAL and CONTINUOUS oppression at the hands of militarized barbarians.

" to the desperate REACTION of a child who, in a feeble attempt to avenge his humanity, commits SUICIDE in response to DECADES of SEVERE, BRUTAL and CONTINUOUS oppression at the hands of militarized barbarians."

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

zionists did not hear peaceful protests that cry for equity and justice when they stole the land on the indigenous people so they(zionists) have closed the door and what they shall have is a full measure of what they have sown for the last 100 years.

You all have to understand we are all brain washed no matter what country we come from. WE all need to wake up. The kids there think that they are doing good. People in the US think that backing them up is the right thing to do. The right thing to do is not to get mad and angry thats what they want us to do, that is how they win and create more confusion and hate.We need to talk and understand each other and if the lines of communication are not open, then we well never have peace.\We all understand that the media is lieing to us that is why we are here at this web site to hear the truth, so spread the truth and it will set us free.

Of course US military servicemen/women do this quite often when they are attacking a country, but at least they are adults, who don't believe the killing of people to be serious.

These are children, young naive impressionable kids, who are being exploited and brainwashed by their country to take violence against their neighbors as being "fun". This is a dangerous position to bring kids to. Hezbollah could easily fire a few rockets at this artillery position and these kids, the future of Israel, would be just as dead as Lebanese kids after an Israeli air or artillery strike.

Yes these look very much like 155mm High Explosive Fragmentation shells used by the M109 Self-Propelled Howitzer(the "tank" in the background), used by the US Military and "sold" to Israel at a price of $0 since US also provides Monetary Aide to Israel each year of greater than $3 billion, Israel then uses this money to buy US weapons. The shells are stacked like this so that the loaders can easily pick them up and place them in the mechanism which loads and extracts shells, this increases the rate of fire and this kind of logistics method is practiced by most professional artillery crews around the world. And unlike rifle bullets, howitzer shells do not have gun powder inside, they need a separate powder canister with primer which propels the shell to its target. Those green cones on top are fuses.

The irony is this kind of behavior was also present in Nazi Germany in WW2, the people who tried to exterminate all Jews. It was common practice that Hitler Youth members should receive "experience" in the field where "sub-humans" were being exterminated. There are photos of Hitler Youth kids watching SS exterminations and taking part in artillery attacks on villages and cities in Eastern Europe. They were trying to brainwash kids to view other people as sub-humans like certain Israelis are doing today.

Let's overlook on the fact that half of the messages posted in this blog had to do with the issue if the shells were armed or not... something that even a blind could very easily recognise... The rest answers are completely dareless, denying to touch the heart of the whole matter. And the heart, the main problem which causes all the troubles in Middle East, is the presence of Israel itself... A state that right after it's recognition from the U.N. in 1948, begun to steel territories from it's neighbours, having always of course the permanent assistance of mama-U.S. A state that establishes it's existence due to biblical references, in which their God tells Judes that the land of Hannaan is theirs! Despite the fact of course that it used to be other nation's homeland. A state that creates it's own deserts and dead zones all around its borders, tortures and depresses everybody else in the region, behaving in a way which (I am sorry to say this but....) clearly indicates Nazi's methods....The only area which has remained natural by all it's criminal activities is the Dead Sea region!

But anyway, Israel seen as a real predatory is doing the right thing. It sets on its own the region it goes out and hunts and this modern society has after all very slight differences from a pure primitive society which's justice system is equal to the jungle "justice" system, where the interest of the strong is the only law. Israel with it's nuclear weapons, the ultra-advanced weapons of mass destruction. it's spy-satellites, the hundreds and hundreds of technological advanced aircrafts, is threatened by Arabs dressed in rags and armed with slings...People who apparently have no right to protest against the occupation of their homeland from the Judes, they have no right to protest against those who murder their children and their future.

So Israel claims that everything it does, does it for it's self-protection. But the Nazis used exactly the same arguments in order to justify their choices and acts. Back at this era, the symbol of cruelty was Auswich. Today's Auswich is Palestine. Sixty five years ago the victims were the Judes. Today's holocaust victims are the Palestinians. And of course, the most curious aspect of today's.. .....story, is who plays the role of the Nazis....

And now something for the American citizens... Until when you 'll continue dragging your bodies on foreign battlefields, thousands miles away from your country, how many wars will you still announce, in how many countries yet will you try to inforce your point of view for democracy? Untill when foreign and foe lobbies will dictate the choices of your nation? Till when you ll' keep on suffering.... statements which indicate that the survival of foreign countries are equal or even above the survival of your own nation?

Τill when you 'll keep on dragging on foreign battlefields sacrificing your own youth? Sixty years ago, you were the heroes of the 2nd World war world...Today your country is the tyrant of the globe.ill when you will be letting tiny leaders who do not even know proper writing and reading -and of course zero history!- to drag you here and there? Till when you 'll keep on behaving like rude..... cowboys considering the rest of the world as uncivilized Indians ?

Terms like good and bad, have lost their fair value long ago. Right now, only one axis exists... The Axis USA - U.K.- ISRAEL - TURKEY only exists and the only missing from it is the symbol of swastika to remind us similar situations from our past.... Today's "good guys" are the only who have rights, the only ones who have the right to interfere anywhere, to bomb whoever they consider as bad guy, the only ones who have the right to establish their point of view for democracy. Everybody else, considered as bad guy or even worse as bad nation, have only obligations. They must have your permission even to breath!

Democracy, humanity, are concepts which have lost completely their original meaning.

I only see a reflection of the hatress these kids have in their souls.These are the results when you plant Hebrew "ideals" in a virgin soul. The harvest is hatress. What else can you expect fronm people who consider themselves as God's chosen ones, while all other nations are called goyim and their people are considered sub-humans?

Just a thought for VW bus crew out there,(Most of you)Let's say our amigos from the South went through a fundamentalists way of thinking and actually decided California is theirs to take, started shooting missiles everyday killing innocent people.( and don't think its not possible)What would your acid fried brainssayA) dude they have every right it is their land, B Dude it's all Israels and the fascist Zionists fault.C) Dude Let me get another drag from the pipe before I answer that.D) Dude I am proud to be a MexicanF) Dude All of the AboveI know most of you pathetic acid fried, alien chasing, out of work assholes would choose FTell me if I'm wrong FYIThe militant groups want to kill off the Western world.I am not talking about the Muslims in general.These backward freaks would kill everyone who is not 100% with them. this would include all Christians, Jews,Buddhists, etc... not to mention 95% of the Muslims.Smoke on that .I don't see anything wrong with what the kids in the photos are doing either way if these are shells or new missiles.If my kids and I had to live with 20 years of being shelled by Mexico my kids would be doing the same thing

No Native American/Canadian has EVER called me a chink/gook/nigger/spook/wop/etc said...

...

I'd just wanted to say that as a Canadian citizen, and previous immigrant, I am eternally grateful to be able to live in Canada.

Not once, never have an Native Aboriginal (aka First Nation) EVER TOLD ME TO GO HOME. He/she have NEVER called me racist slurs. He/she have NEVER looked at me in an uncomfortable/unwelcoming way. He/she have NEVER told me to "get off their land, and go back to where I came from."

The aboriginals of Canada AND the USA are welcoming.

I've been treated like an "outsider" by those whom where born here, either 2nd generation, 3rd generation, 4th generation... some have ancenstral lineage since the 1700s ---- but one thing is constant, and that is their ancestors were IMMIGRANTS (aka ILLEGALS) just like me.

However, one important distinction between these "white" Canadians/Americans and myself is that neither my ancestors NOR myself came by force -- we did NOT TAKE THEIR LAND --- we did NOT COERCE THEM TO SIGN LOPSIDED "TREATIES" -- we DID NOT KILL THEM and then called the "Indians" the "bad guys" --- we DID NOT SPREAD OUR DISEASES & INTRODUCED ALCOHOL to them, which subsequently WIPED THEM NEARLY OUT --- we DO NOT CALL THEM NAMES AND LOOK DOWN AT THEM LIKE "DRUNKS".

For the most part, the Native Americans (Firsts Nation) DO NOT HOLD A GRUDGE. The ONLY TIMES THAT THEY RAISE AN ISSUE IS WHEN THE GOVERNMENT VIOLATES THE TREATY THE THEMSELVES WROTE UP AND SIGNED ---- and this happened several times, notably in Ontario.

To put it another way:

"No Native American/Canadian has EVER called me a chink/gook/nigger/spook/wop/etc"

One more thing, the "Illegal Mexicans" are the NATIVE AMERICANS --- or in other words:

These are very "broad" classifications but,

---- 1) up in the high, cold artics -- the Aboriginals are called "eskimos" (slang) or Inuits---- 2) Lower into Canada/norther USA --- the Aboriginals are called "indians"---- 3) MOST of USA & Mexico -- the Aboriginals are called "mexicans"

A certain competing Superpwer decides that the US is hostile to it. It sends a recon unit from Mexico into Arizona to establish an outpost, this unit only makes it 50 feet before it is surrounded by those National Guards troops on the border. There is an exchange of fire, 3 invaders are killed and 2 are captured. Imagine in response to such a failure the Superpower begins bombing California and shells Texas and plans to create a "buffer zone"(occupied by its troops) stretching from San Diego to Seattle. The US response is what?

The US starts firing Tomahawk cruise missiles at enemy positions. The difference is? The Hezbollah rockets are unguided and are archaic compared to US missiles.

Don't be a hypocrite by making Israelis "more human" than Lebanese people.

Denying the documented reality of Yitzhak Shamir's efforts to collaborate with the German Reich doesn't negate the documented facts: the documented facts expose you as a rabbid fundamentalist liar:http://www.marxists.de/middleast/brenner/irgunazi.htm

Q&A - attempt #3--------------------

It is worth remembering that racist Zionists (sorry for the tautology) fail, on each and every occassion it is presented, to address the substance of Einstein's letter to the New York Times.

Let me PROVE IT:

Did anyone see the Zionist address the CONTENT of the letter co-signed by Albert Einstein, in which Menachim Begin and his followers were described as Nazis and fascists and terrorists?~ Bernadotte II

What a shame!!!That proves what the Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him)told us that the children of Israel will multiply with lots of children and wealth but because of their arrogance they will never reach the top.They will go down.If Allah pleases and you can sense their arrogance and how they manipulate the news and the leaders of the western world to their advantage.It is like as if they have all been programmed and reading from the script when they speak on the news about Iran and Syria and that even that idiot in the south sings their tune.He does not have a personality of his own.How could these very same people who claim to have been gassed by the Nazi Germany institute the worst torture and cruelty and the worst atrocities to the Palestinian people?How?That shows that they have no spine.They are like serpents.Their fall will come eventually.I am not against the Jews but I can tell you this zionist state has committed the worst that the world has ever seen or witnessed and calling itslef a democracy.Why no one is doing any thing to the North Koreans?because they are all afraid of them and knowing that the Koreans will not take any shit from anyone.How many resolutions that were passed by the United Nations that have not been respected by this Zionist State? From the time that they took over the land of Palestine in 1948? Today we keep on hearing the leader in the south barking about resolutions regarding the Syrians pulling out of Lebanon and the disarmament of the Hezbullah!but the Zionist can cross borders and get into any country at will to liberate their soldiers and at the expense of damaging the infra structure of a country without disregard for human lives and properties!What a shame.No one seems to mention their nuclear facility at Dimona which could bring about the worst nuclear disaster the like of Chernobyl in the former Soviet Union and this is no joke and has been reported by Mordechai Vanunu.Jews and Arabs have lived side by side for centuries up until the creation of the State of Israel and you will see that the western christian countries are openly supporting the Jewish State to kill Palestinian and Lebanese christians and where is the christian brotherhood here?Why they prefer a Jew over their own christian brothers and sisters?Strange ha!!! May be they feel guilty for murdering the Jews in Europe and this is the repayment but at the expense of the poor Palestinian Arab lives and the Lebanese.What a world.They are treated worst than animals but salvation will come by the will of God.InshaAllah!Amin.

What is going on in the Middle East this week is all part of the "greater" plan:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Israel

Though the borders of Greater Israel are not clearly defined, many devout Jews (and Christians alike) draw such definition from Biblical sources, namely the book of Genesis, which describes God's covenant with Abraham:

On that day, God made a covenant with Abraham, saying: "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt as far as the great river the Euphrates. ... Genesis 15:18-21

In the above context, Greater Israel would comprise, roughly, modern-day Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, and the Sinai, much of Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, as well as parts of Egypt and Turkey.

Perhaps some people don't understand why all of this is occuring? I trust that this info will help bring current events into perspective.

Remember too, that it's all been done before. Recall the "discovery" and development of the New World? Genocide/Holocaust of the Native Americans, followed by the monstrous enslavement of the Africans. Ring any bells?

One huge difference today is that the whole world is watching. Another is that there are nuclear weapons in the hands of many. Only deformed bastards (particularly fundamentalists) regard any of this with glee.

As it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end. Or so says a certain book. Even so, there is always a cyclical aspect to nature...And remember that Israel (like other places) was birthed in violence, terrorism and bloodshed. Doesn't look too promising for the "promised land", if you ask me.

------------to address the specific subject at hand: those youth/children are being manipulated for evil purposes; that tragically is also an age-old story enacted by many.

They are live shells. Dead shells would have an explosion pattern to them on the top, no point, no trigger (visable int he pictures), and the shell would have burn marks all over it. Most of the time nothing would be left really. They are live shells that children are signing. Sad world we live in.

The Krauts need to re-open the gas chambers and fire up the ovens and get it right this time...they have more than enough parasite Muzzie/terrorist scum infesting their country now. They're going to have to be exterminated sooner or later; the humane thing to do is to wipe 'em out now before there's more. The cancer of Islam must be crushed without pity or mercy.

The word NAZi is often used as it stands for national-socialism. That's wrong. Actually nazi is short for 'Ashkenazi'. The word was used by non-german jews to make out a 'german' jew, is short for Ashkenazi. Those came from Poland (coming out of mongol-Khazaria when it fell they went to Poland). From there they went to Russia, the Baltic states and Germany. In those countries they took power completely (under the umbrella of marxism/communism what was a TOOL to conquer the Goyim (= non jews). Very much Ashkenazim went to into Germany where they tried to take full control but failed, that’s why a full jewish war was organised against the Germans. National socialism was the answer against jewish takeover. National socialism lost because the Ashkenazim managed to manipulate Great Britain and the USA into the conflict making it a full scale world war.

We heard about the jews that were killed in this conflict. But many, MANY more non-jews were killed also. Goyim fighting and killing each other for jewish interest. Also under jewish-marxist rule 65 million eastern Europeans DIED in the dead camps of the jew Stalin or where deliberately wiped out because there crops where destroyed by jewish Bolsheviks and there stooges. Stalin was great buddies with the jew Churcill and the Jew Roosevelt. Upto 2 million (!) German soldiers dead in the dead camps of the jew Eisenhower after WW II. General Patton who admired Germans and German culture opposed the murdering politics of Eisenhower and alike so was assassinated in a freak accident. That’s ZOG all the way!!! All those with power threw out history who opposed jewish control where assassinated, simply murdered or when it was to problematic died in freak accidents or hart attacks (Mossad) style etc.

NOTE: The Bolshevik revolution against the Russian people was organised and financed by Jewish bankers and Talmudic thugs out of New York.

Now the jews are in full power world wide. The made a better version of marxism (international socialism) and they call it multiculture. Every means they had was used to propagate this new society: feminism, cultural anthropology, socialism, music-culture (jazz, soul, gangsta rap, hip hop -> MTV), Freudian psychology etc etc. All jewish. Pluriformity is good for jews so they can hide better in there host societies. And it makes it better to control off course. With the cultural, social, political and financial system and the media under full jewish control the can now bring 'one worldorder', all judea! international economic socialism.

All to establish there rebuilding of the temple on the temple mount. Then they first have to get rid of the Muslims and there power first (because there is a Muslim mosque on the temple mount). They have ignored Americans and Europeans for that job, they may do the dirty work. So the jews will create yet another war between Christians and Muslims (what’s new).

After this jewish temple has been rebuild they will install themselves there in the form of jewish high priest. But as they reject Christ it will be satanic. Also because the jews are not jews at all! With the coming of Jesus Christ a temple or the necessity for blood offering in a temple has ended! Doing so will be a horror against God and abomination in the eyes of the Lord.

"According to the Bible, the Land of Israel (Hebrew transliteration: Eretz Yisrael) was promised to the descendants of Hebrew patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob by God, making it the Promised land."

Well, then, there is a problem. Israel is given to the Ashkenazi: - ZIONAZI's. - Mongols (Gog and Magog)Or, to put it another way, it was not given to descendants of Jacob, it was given to descendants of Gog. The Balfour Act was addressed to a Rothschild, who was Khazarian.

Old Testament:

"Gog and Magog will enter the holy land (edom and khazar = modern "jewry") and will find it's end there"

U.N. RESOLUTION 242

"Withdrawal of Israeli armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict"". (1967)

the problem with the jews is that they are spoiling it, the last 3000 years, for the jews that want to live in peace (without talmudic dogma) with non-jews.

heh, too funny.....why no pictures of the dead Israeli civilians from the Katusha rockets that are fired indiscriminantly into Israel. The only thing that is a curse on humanity is radical Islam and their total lack of respect for human life.

Has Islam made ONE positive contribution to humanity in the last thousand years? No, and they are even morally inferior to the Nazis, as the Nazis were at least ashamed enough of their crimes to try to hide them from the world. Islam has no compunction about demonstrating that they openly seek the extinction of ALL human life by any means necessary.

Those are not dead shells. These shell look pristine in their condition and are grouped together ready for use. Writing messages on bombs and missiles before they are deployed is a known custom in militaries throughout the world. I seriously doubt that they where signing non-functioning artillery shells. I used to support the right for Israel to exist until I found out that the only legal justification of its existence is the bible. The UN, which is really controlled by the U.S., essentially felt bad that that people of the Jewish faith where denied asylum from other countries, especially the U.S. during the Nazi regime. We all know what happened next...they where massacred. The Arab countries are also to blame in this circus of the terminally insane. The Palestinians are caught in between, kicked off their land and used as pawns by extremists. As for the statement that liberals are supporting Israel: that is false. Many people confuse liberalism with the Democratic Party. The truth is that the democrats and republicans are two heads of the same snake. Their corporate masters control them both. Last time I checked it was the neo-cons who are in control of the judiciary, legislative and executive branches of our government. The results speak for themselves. One controlling party is not the definition of representational democracy. Then people wonder why these things happen.

and the neocons are controlled by the........jews. after they found out that it was a good thing to control the right to (so it would become in the interests of jews instead of whites, what has exactly happened) they took over the right on the political spectrum. don't make me laugh........freedom, democrazy etc. NOT possible when jewish serpents are around!

"This [Zionist] entity, which has many strengths has weaknesses as well. One of its most important weaknesses is the fact that it is an extraneous entity. It is not deeply rooted.

"Another of its weaknesses is the fact that its society is not homogeneous. Some Falasha Ethiopians, some from Russia, and some from I don't know where... They are bound together by a baseless and unfounded myth.

"Another weakness of this entity is that its people came because they were promised security, peace, and a life in the land of milk and honey. But if they encounter something else, they will leave this land.

"Another weakness is that both as individuals and as a collective, they are described by Allah as 'the people who guard their lives most.' Their strong adherence to this world, with all its vanities and pleasures, constitutes a weakness.

"In contrast, our people and our nation's willingness to sacrifice their blood, souls, children, fathers, and families for the sake of the nation's honor, life, and happiness has always been one of our nation's strengths."

You know how I'm opposed to posting articles in their entirety but I want to make an exception in respone to Anonymous Sat Jul 22, 01:00:07 AM EDT and these are just the recorded TERRORIST ACTS by the zionist regime covering a four year period.

The UN Report Prepared in 1948 for Ralphe Bunche, New UN Commissioner to Palestine

188

November 30- December 6, 1947, Palestine. A week of disorders brought on by Arab wrath over the UN's decision to partition the Holy Land ended with at least 159 killed in the Middle East, 66 in Palestine. While Jews in Palestine, Europe and the US. celebrated and began planning their new state and the UN moved to implement its plan, war talk was rife throughout the Arab world. The Arab League announced on December 1 that premiers and foreign ministers of seven Arab states would meet in Cairo next week to plan strategy against partition. In Palestine: Jerusalem and the Jaffa Tel Aviv boundary zone were centers of week-long strife which began when seven Jews were killed throughout Palestine on November 30 and the mayor of Nablus, Arab nationalist center, proclaimed jihad or a holy war. British High Commissioner Sir Alan Cunningham warned the Arab Higher Command on December 1 that Britain was determined to keep order so long as it held its mandate, and police stopped Arab agitators from raising crowds in Jerusalem. But Jewish celebrations there were stoned. Arabs looted and burned a three-block Jewish business district in Jerusalem on December 2, the first day of a three-day Arab general strike during which 20 Jews and l5 Arabs were killed. When British troops failed to intervene, Haganah (unofficial Zionist militia) came into the open for the first time in eight years to restrain large-scale Jewish retaliation and also guard Jewish districts. Some Haganah men were arrested for possessing weapons. The day's strife caused $1 million worth of damage and resulted in a 24-hour curfew being applied to Arab Jerusalem for the rest of the week. The curfew was extended to outlying roads on December 3 to stop stonings of Jewish traffic and keep rural Arabs out of the capital. Max Pinn, head of the Jewish Agency's Trade and Transfer Department was killed on December 2 when Arabs stoned his auto near Ramleh. On this day Jews stoned Arab buses in Jerusalem. On the Jaffa-Tel Aviv boundary, which also is under around-the-clock curfew, the week's heaviest battle was a six-hour clash between Hagariah and Arabs on December 3 in which seven Jews and five Arabs were killed and 75 persons injured. On December 2, Haganah claimed to have mobilized 10,000 men in the intercity trouble zone, and the Arab Legion of Trans-Jordan reported on this date that it had reinforced Jaffa. Seven Jews were killed in Jaffa-Tel Aviv on this date. There were lesser attacks in Haifa this week. It becomes clearly evident that the partition is not going as planned and that although the Jews are pleased, the Arabs are not. There appears to be no way to control the Jews or their determination to drive all of the Arabs out of Jerusalem by force if necessary. The Arabs, initially living in peace with the Jewish minority, have been increasingly victimized by the Jews who, now that the British are leaving, are turning their savage behavior against them. The Jews have redoubled their efforts to build a military force and arm them. They claim that this force is to protect the Jewish population against attacks from the Arab countries as well as the Arab population of Jerusalem but an even stronger argument can be made that the Zionists are determined to drive out the Arab population by armed force. The initial Arab response to Jewish harassment over the past year has been very slow in coming but it seems to be quite inevitable and a terrible civil war is foreseen. The United States Department of State announced on December 5, 1947 that they were placing an embargo on all American arms shipments to the Middle East It appears that the Soviets have been sending weapons – mostly captured German pieces, to assist the Zionists and accompanying these clandestine arms shipments the Soviets have also sent a very sizable contingent of instructors and advisors to Palestine in months past As many of the Zionists are Russian or Polish in origin, these Communist Russians have been received gladly by the Jewish extremists and quickly blend in with the local populations. Soviet interest in Middle East oil and an overriding interest in obtaining warm-water ports are a prime factor in their interest in a Jewish state in Palestine. The most violent reactions in the Arab world to the UN partition idea are Syrian and Egyptian. However, it is noted that the worst outbreak of anti-partition violence outside Palestine occurred in Aden, a British colony at the entrance to the Red Sea. On December 5, British military reinforcements were sent to Aden after four days of Arab-Jewish fighting in which 5O Jews and 25 Arabs were killed. In Syria, public demonstrations by the Arab population paralyzed business in Damascus earlier this week. The Soviet cultural center and Communist headquarters in Damascus were wrecked on November 30 with four persons killed. The Syrian Communist Party was officially disbanded by the government and the US. and British Embassy flags were torn down. On December 1, Syria introduced military training into all boys' schools and on December 2, the Syrian Parliament enacted a draft law and voted $860,000 for the relief of Palestinian Arabs. On the same day Arabs attacked the Jewish part of Aleppo. In Egypt the Chamber of Deputies resolved on December 1 to help keep Palestine a totally Arab state and to support the Arab population of Palestine against attacks by the Jewish minority. There were repeated anti-US. And British demonstration in Egypt's main cities, and the British Institute in Zagazig was burned on December 2. All public meetings were banned in Cairo after Egyptian police fought with 15,000 people on December 4.In Lebanon, Arab students smashed the windows of the US. Legation in Beirut on December 1 and Lebanese Communists demonstrated against the partition of Palestine and all schools were closed to prevent student disorders. In Iraq, students in Baghdad wrecked the US. Information offices on December 4. In Saudi Arabia, anti-American demonstrations by Arabs in the oil fields were restrained by the government

Arab retaliatory raids at Jaffa and Tel Aviv had killed 30 Jews and Arabs when local businessmen on both sides arranged for a truce on December 10 to effect an orange harvest On December 11, however, the Arabs renewed their assaults in the Old City of Jerusalem, which was the worst day of the current strife with 41 fatalities throughout Palestine. On December 12, Haganah launched attacks on both the Arabs and British with a death toll of 20 Arabs, five Jews and two British soldiers killed. On December 13, bombings by the Irgun killed at least 16 Arabs and injured 67 more in Jerusalem and Jaffa and burned down a hundred Arab houses in Jaffa.

Disaffected Youth..SHUT Your Hole!You don't make no sense what so ever. Keep your Zionist logic & reasoning to yourselves! No human being is interested in it.

The two things that made Israel exist & survive are: money power & control of media.With money they do whatever they want & with media they says whatever they want, & here the money comes back & buys pro-opinions.

Look at the big picture, they own the biggest businesses on earth, manipulate the biggest power (USA), & control media to a big extent.

Highly Educated, intelligent, very wealthy & very powerful you are; but all these don't make you right & won't ever make you Human Beings if you’re not originally.

Why People around the world show or pretend to support you is because they're somehow forced to.In a world of material you rule the game.Yet in the course of humanity Israel is a curse on earth: A cancer that has to be treated or it will kill everyone.

Throughout history all people hated you, & wanted to get rid of you, they tried so hard, not that this was right, but i'm sure it felt like a necessity: a cure. but you worked your ass so hard, & congratulations you succeeded, you got a promise to be protected dumped / imposed on Palestine.& there, with no right you started to exist by force.

However, you were destined to exist, a further test to humanity, an aspect of the purpose of life, a cruel face of reality.

Of Good & Evil you speak! so you turned the good to your side! The good news is the world hardly believe you so far. The bad news is: it's quite the opposite & the world conscience is starting to see the opposite and no matter how hard u try to blind people, they woke up from their slumber & started to open their eyes, see & remorsefully realize that they were deceived/bought all the time.

Even some of you hate you!!! That’s because they know you.Get to know yourself better, The core of you! & inevitably you will hate yourself. You think you're God's elite people on earth, u think you have the right to exploit all & everyone is inferior to u & to is to be in your best interest.

Israel never stopped showing its aggression & racism to all its neighbors.& whenever reproached, it starts acting pathetic.... moans holocaust & Bla Bla Bla..What a pity!You're doing much worse than holocaust to people around u everyday for over 60 years now.

Here’s an interesting fact: Israel has enough nuclear weapons to destroy planet earth three times.Israel can demolish Earth x 3.The most aggressive country, still occupying lands of three neighboring countries, has the most dangerous power, in the hands of such people with such immoral doctrines & beliefs, ready to do whatever possible to control everything in the world.

Israel is THE danger!! The Axis of EVIL! So they brainstormed & came up with this name.People around the world should know this: The war is on terror, every one wants to end it, that’s right: but There's a cause & there's effect. The effect is international terrorist islamic radicals…etc, they should be destroyed, no question in that: Yet the cause is a much bigger camouflaged Terrorism…..ISRAEL / Zionism.

Where is reason? Obviously, those shells pictured haven't been dropped. There are in mint condition. Even unexploded ordinance gets wrecked when it slams into the ground at several hundred miles per hour. And since neither Lebanon nor Hezbollah have an air force, let alone one effective against Israel, I doubt those shells were 'dropped.' Even if they were, I haven't heard anything about Israel defending itself with enormous pillows. Besides, I thought the problem was Katyushka rockets, which don't look at all like that. I doubt if Hezbollah had artillery pieces that could launch such large shells that they would still be around at this point.

So how can the people who have encouraged and enabled these children to write such extraordinarily vulgar messages on the instruments of death--whether the purpose of those shells is legitimate defense or illegitimate collective punishment--be defended? And how can the actions of these few be used to justify rhetoric calling for wiping a whole people off the map?

Does it signal a very disturbing capacity for ethnic hatred among some Israelis that seriously undermines their nation's constant claims that their forces always act under morally defined restraint and that their people as a whole are qualitatively different and superior to their enemies?

Just maybe. So in our anger, lets not lower ourselves to such a level.

I am appauled by the type of ignorance and simple lack of education among the majority of bloggers on this post. First and foremost, how much clearer can it get based on the type of baseless rhetoric spewed here that anti-zionism is just a simple cover for anti-semitism (anytime you see anti-zionist rhetoric it almost always accompanies some type of Jewish conspiracy theory).

Second: as someone who has been watching this situation for most of my life, as someone who has spent a lot of time in Israel and spent time in the West Bank, as someone who knows both Israelis and Palestinians, never in my life have I seen anything like these pictures I have seen today. The pictures aren't very clear as to what these kids are writing on them - one of the signatures says, "to Nasrallah with love" (referring to Hizbullah's leader Hassan Nasrallah) I will say, I'm pretty sure they're outgoing tank/artillary shells, as I know that was an earlier debate. But let me be clear in saying, however, that by no means is this a typical Israeli policy. It could be perhaps a psychological healing practice - I have no idea, so don't quote me on it - (the children of northern Israel have spent the last 10 days in bomb shelters), but I've never before seen anything like this from the Israeli side.

On a third note, it is quite convenient for those of you who bash Israel for these photographs. Especially considering that over the last 20 years millions of photographs, videos, films, etc have been furnished of Palestinian children being dressed in Jihadist outfits, carrying weapons, wearing suicide belts, brandishing signs "we'll finish the job Hitler started" (ironic that they deny the Holocaust), and general indoctrination of hate against Jews and the west. Where were your cries against these groups when this was happening? There are never any cries from people like you against terrorist organizations like Islamic Jihad that willingly recruit 10-12 year old children for suicide missions in Israel (often without their parents' knowledge). There are no cries against Hamas and Hizbullah who fire rockets against Israel from within civilian populations. The difference here is that Israel protects it's civilians, while Islamic Extremists put their children on the frontline in order to use casualty numbers to give them leverage in media coverage.

You who declare Israel a barbaric, genocidal state, have no idea what genocide is. Why is it that the Arab population in the territories has trippled since 1990? If there were "ethnic cleansing" as you so describe, or "genocide" (I suggest you look up the term in the dictionary), that number would be an impossible figure.

While I oppose in the strongest terms possible, the deaths of innocent civilians, I feel that the reckless disregard for Israel's security by the Lebanese government, has put its own citizens in jeopardy. Over 1700 rockets have been fired into Israel over the last 11 days. The only reason Israel's casualty numbers are lower is because Israel has better health care and they have provided bomb shelters for all of their citizens. If Israelis didn't have that type of protection, I guarantee the numbers would be exponentially higher.

So, before you go and criticize Israel take a much stronger glance at your own political biases, examine the actual evidence presented (being that this is probably the first time any of you have seen a photo like this - I know it is for me), and make a reasonable assessment of a far more complex situation than any of us can truly grasp (it isn't black and white as many of you would like to believe).

if any of you are actually in israel you could have watched the story on channel 2. these children were bussed up for a party with the soldiers, and these are live artillery rounds ready to be fired at lebanon.

Instead of just arguing whose to blame or not we just focus on "you did this and I did that...". We, the normal people (not our leaders) should all be interested in achieving peace with eachother. Let the leaders fight their own fights.

But I'll guess the leaders need war to keep the masses.

We should all rise above our history (because history is just history) and focus on our future happiness.

whatever the dertails of the shell game, what do you think of having these children there doing that... it is possible that they are students from a class whose tecaher is one of the thousands of Israelis who march against the aggression and are part of the peace movement in israel that is little reported on, but that would be surprising... and now usa expedites sending missiles to israel, there goes the olde iran supports hezbollah comparison.. not too liong i think before another catastrophe in usa promopted by the displaced, homeless, murdered families, or by cia or mossad , as they7 did before....

When will this insanity stop?I am so tired to watch convulsed on tv innocent people to get killed because of the politician's benefits!!Because America and Israel collaborate!!They are making money from selling weapons and they are trying to rule the whole world!!I wonder how do they dare to do that!!This world belongs to everybody!!We all deserve to be free!!We , the Greeks, are against to anyone who is unfair to people and generaly to the whole humanity!!!PEACE EVERYWHERE!!

I used to be in the artillery. Those shells are NOT duds, collected. Duds tend to look a lot more battered up, wich you would expect after hitting the ground at about 200 mph. Further, those shells are heavy caliber, above 8 inches. They are not missiles, they are not tank shells, they are heavy artillery shells, and i seriously doubt that Hizbollah has heavy artillery. Or could operate it if they had, using that kind of equipment is difficult.

The "collected dud"-argument can end here. These are NOT duds. I've seen so many myself that I can safely make that assesment. Further, duds are EXTREMELY dangerous. ONE of those shells obliverates everything in a 100 yard radius if it goes of, we disarmed duds by putting on a bombsuit, crawl out to the shell and use C4 to set it of. They can go off at the slightest vibration. The Israeli military would NEVER stock up duds like that. And NEVER EVER let kids sign the duds.

And no, there are no safe duds. There's allways a chance.

I'm not a terrorist advocate. Neither a blooming Israeli supporter. I am merely a man saddened by all the violence and hate we have in this world today. Differences or whatever, we are all human, and that commands respect for eachothers right to live freely without fear. I feel sorry for both the Israeli and Libanese kids.

"Muslims in Zimbabwe;genocide of christians, deportations and harrasmentMuslims in Namibia; genocide of christians, muslims calling for separate stateMuslims in South Africa; persecution of christians, muslims calling for separate state"

Eh?

I am South African, and I can vouch that at the very least these three statements are complete and utter bullshit. And no, I'm not Muslim, I am a white, middle-aged, English-speaking male of (very distant) Irish descent.

What I will tell you further from bitter experience, is that all the excuses being trotted out by the Israeli apologists are exactly the same as those trotted out by the apartheid apologists.

There is no difference between the South African apartheid state, and the current State of Israel, it's like watching the same movie again.

There will only be peace in Palestine when true democracy is installed in the area, and a one-state solution is negotiated.

In South Africa we had bantustans, and tried to convince the world that these fragmented and isolated "states" were independent countries.

Well, we all know what happened here, and today whilst we have our problems, we at least do have a single, united democratic country.

The Israelis are going to have to learn (like we whites in SA did), that:

1.They are not a superior race2.They cannot subjugate and terrorise everybody to get their way forever3.They cannot use the bible to justify injustice4.If people have nothing left to lose, then they will resort to means beyond your comprehension5.The rest of the world will eventually wake up and bring them down with sanctions6.They will have to learn to live and get along in a country with everyone else without having the last say in everything7.It's really shit finding out you are actually the "bad guys" (a lot of Americans are going to find this out for themselves too, and it tastes really bitter btw)

To those of you who have never seen war at first hand, it's ugly. It's the worst obscenity that any human can ever witness, and I can speak from personal experience.

Those who advocate violence and war, and get all excited about "defending" whoever with blatant acts of agression (just like SA did) because it's so easy to get all chickenhawk about it from a distance, do yourself a favour, go and find out first hand about it, then maybe you won't think it's such a good idea anymore.

That's the problem with the current US administration (and what appears from here to be a fairly significant portion of the US public). It seems they just don't really know what war actually is and what it's like.

Oh, one last thing. Will all the Democrats in the US kindly stop being such chickenshits and stand up for what's morally right for a change.

When I read articles at sites like KOS and see how many of those wet-farts spend more time worrying about how they'll be perceived by the right-wing than whether they actually have any opinions or try to discuss real issues I want to scream.

I can tell you that Democrats are also being held liable for the current US mess by the rest of the world because they're not doing anything concrete to oppose it.

Being walked all over is not going to win an election. Grow some balls FFS!

Who care's if those shell where live or not, the fact that kids are around shell let alone signing them means that there is a problem.Are people really looking at the big picture here. Get those kids out of there, you wounder why there is so much wrong doing in this world, just look at those photos again.

f**k israel and i hope all israeli's die. u guys dont even have a country , ur trying to build a country on others land. I hope the israeli people all die in this war, cuz thast what u bitches deserve.

You are not a nazi or an anti-semite because you think that Israel is acting liek complet fucking idiots. The only thing that they accomplish by bombing Lebanon to pieces, is making it a hell lot easier for Hizbollah to recruit more terrorists.

Ola, you're right that you aren't a Nazi or an anti-Semite just for criticizing Israeli policy. However, you are if you write things like:

"f**k israel and i hope all israeli's die. u guys dont even have a country , ur trying to build a country on others land. I hope the israeli people all die in this war, cuz thast what u bitches deserve."
